Magali Daniaux & Cédric Pigot - Untitled "Devenir Graine", the artistic project of Magali Daniaux & Cédric Pigot offers an unusual take on the issues surrounding energy and food management. This work, with its diversity of content and media, takes as its starting point Kirkenes, a small town in northern Norway, strategically located on the Barents Sea, where prospecting for gas and oil reserves takes place and the islands of the Svalbard archipelago, situated inside the Arctic circle, which provide a metaphorical illustration of the relations between man and nature. By combining poetry, fiction, documentary, interviews and performance, "Devenir Graine" takes a surrealist journey through the contemporary Arctic while tackling the hottest geopolitical and geostrategic issues: global warming, urban development, cross-border collaboration between Norway and Russia, opening up of the Schengen zone, managing fossil fuel and nuclear resources, as well as the development of GMOs (genetically modified organisms) and the commercialisation of living things. This project imagines the Arctic as a gigantic back up, a huge protective reserve, for a biocentric humankind living in environments that are climate-controlled and designed to order. "The fridge world" - a promise of death and eternity. - http://devenirgraine.org/ http://svalbardglobalseedvault.com/ http://lo-moth.com/ http://haihaihai.org/ http://globalseedtrust.com/ -- www.daniauxpigot.com
